Recently started using Linux for software development and it is waay easier to get things done than on windows. As a beginner in CS and a total Windows person, I am beginning to really enjoy Linux. I will definitely install a dualboot on my Laptop for the new semester in school.

    @SubArcticZero ATM i'm using Ubuntu to get used to Linux, without having to read a manual every time i want to do standard things

    I started dual booting between Linux and Windows about two years ago, switching to Linux for programming and back to windows for games and movies and similar. Now I can't remember the last time I booted into Windows at home. Bought a new laptop in February that I think I only ever booted into Windows once during setup. So yeah, once you figure Linux out you will probably never go back.

    I started using linux because windows kept running out of memory and crashing on me. I haven't used it since I switched about 6 months ago. I thought I would hate it but the truth is I could never see myself going back. Welcome to the club, I guess?

    Welcome aboard! Feel free to try all the distros since you don't have to spend $120 for licensing (well... Redhat maybe) but be warned. Once you turn to Gentoo, your life is over. There's no escaping.

    Thanks for all the responses :D i think i will stay on dualboot until i got a nice environment up amd running, so that nothing is missing. And when i need some windows stuff, there is still wine

    @MrMarlin don't get rid of it cold turkey, just slowly phase it out. Eventually you'll go months without touching the windows partition lol you will become one of us 😈 lower your Shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Resistance is futile
